Quote from maxitronixy:
im still leary of touching gold, im scared their's a rebound in the dollar coming, it can't go up and up without a dip right? even if it's a relatively shallow dip.
besides if the carry trade and the stock bubble bursts
my question is will people pull money out of gold? ( consider the short term)
Since no one has the foggiest, all you are going to compile is a bunch of random guesses. If the economists don't know, what are anonymous posters going to say.
You buy some, and it goes up or down. If it goes up, you think u r a genius. If it goes down, u kick yourself.
Gold makes sense as a small part of your overall assets. Try to dollar-cost average (you buy the same dollar amount of something each time - when gold higher you get less, when gold lower, you get more). that tends to push down the average price of whatever you accumulate.
